head or heart?? Which is right??

Many a times, i find myself in a situation when the biggest fight i have to put up with before concluding upon a decision is with my Own Self! Does it hold true for each one of us or its a defect just in me... ;0)...i wonder...

Such times tend to come in more often as we grow up..when before most major/minor decisions pending to b taken..the battle between the Heart and Head begins!

It sounds like a crazy case of split personality to me..and so uncanny..however i do try my best to keep things at peace within me..but the never resolving battle between the heart n head would come up soon again n again..my mind thinks,gives its own logics favouring its decision...while the heart, the dominating side of an emotional me..puts it foot down n interferes from behind every time i a just about to go according to the mind...

the result being: the confused me n a pending decision... :0) now the question that comes up in my mind is which one of them is right... N oh god pat the answer comes immediately from god only knows whr...noone is always right..n thrs no boss here.. Both have their own logics which need to be weighed n probablilties of the situation need to be determined before every decision...

My mind is more knowledgable than my heart is...but my heart loves me more than my mind... So whatever i do..i must balance them both n move ahead, n then only good things shall happen to me in the head..

While one should not be too emotional, thinking just from the heart ( remember heart doesnt think, it just loves), one cannot always be way too practical, thinking selfishly from my mind only, since selflessness lies only in the heart...
Think Maintaining a balance is the key to be followed!

what do u think?

Lotsa love

Why is Life so Short?

Miseries of the world! V movin video!!

It has almost become a habit now, to silently pray to God every night before going to bed, and thank him for the day that has passed peacefully and happily. As i finish the prayer, i recollect my thoughts and introspect on all the activities done by me thru the day..and in this my mind also gets diverted to the activities happening across the world , both good and bad!

As i do this, ive come to realize and put together as to how everyday some or the other news comes up either nationally or internationally...or of a close family or friend which forces me to think how life is so so short and unpredictable.
While mostly these unpredictables of life is considered as the spices in life...they land up making us feel devastated, shattered, helpless and extremely small in front of God or Universe!

Most of us waste so much of our time thinking of past and planning for our futures that we tend to forget that there exists the Present, which is most beautiful and is fast getting wasted and slipping out of our hands...

As i hear of events happening around in the few days....the bigger ones like the train accident today, plane crash few days back...attack at mosque in lahore, the magnamous effects of Laila...etc. killing n injuring many people almost everyday, i feel really small, helpless and sad!
I wish to confess that, Where a part of me feels happy to be amongst the privileged few (touch wood) and to not ve had to face such incidents myself, another part of my heart honestly goes out to all the people who are suffering in the hands of the furies of nature and man, innocently!
R.I.P to all the deceased and many prayers for the ones injured and the families of the deceased persons.

As these events unfold everyday ,i succumb to the decisions of the universe and accept that Life really is short, do live it to the most without any regrets...make sure u have not hurt anyone intentionally through the day before u go to bed...and if u have, be brave enough to apologise...
the power of forgiveness is so powerful that it makes things easier for u, if not for anyone else..it takes off ur load!
...life too short to live by holding a grudge against anyone...isnt it better to live after being hurt, than after hurting someone...so do not hold a grudge too long, and put the mistakes of others aside and better concentrate on ur own!
whats the point in wasting away time thinking about the things u dont have, n isnt it better instead to feel happy about the things u have..
there are so many miseries in this world, our issues are next to null in front of them!

Keep it simple n smiling! Its not just about money, honey!!

lotsa love and peace to all!!

Impermanence is Permanent!!!

Many a times in life, i have had to go through a situation where my mind forces me not to accept the changes around me, whether good or bad..making the change, that is inevitable to happen, difficult for me to accept..and i often find myself forcing my mind to accept it and face the reality until, i win over it!
As i go thru such instances, i realize that many of our issues in life which bother us, arise due to our desire of Permanency!

I read a quote somewhere which read: "Change is the only constant in life."
and I realize that nothing in our life lasts forever..NOTHING, Good times, Bad times or even LIFE!Life is very very impermanent..and oh so constantly changing...

When one is going through a rough phase,it is better to accept it and introspect yourself, learn from your mistakes and try and overcome your weaknesses and you'll come out even better and brave! on the contrary, while going through a good time...stay grounded..make the most of it...enjoy it to the fullest...share your happiness with ur loved ones and make ur investments by making the deprived ones happy and u'll never be alone when its gone!

I think life has a lot of resemblance with a River...which moves on continuousy and endlessly..forever seeking, exploring, learning, pushing, overflowing its banks and penetrating every crevice with its water! Its not about making a small puddle of water, next to the river so that its flow and impermanence does not effect you...
It eventually will! You cannot ignore that the mosquitos and many others diseases breed in such stagnant waters only!

Life is about accepting the impermanence and making the most of time in every way.
This state of impermanece is often taken as dangerous, scary and full of risk due to the inherent insecurity in our minds and its need to live in a state of permanence.Agreed it is!

But until and unless u make way for the change in ur life...how will u let the better oppurtunity come your way. If i could, i would get out of puddle and face the ferocious river. I feel living fully and taking whatever life gives is a bigger bliss and worth the risk! Changes whether good or bad, come accross in life only to make it better...
Let go of the dependancy!
The impermanence actually makes life more exciting!
Think about it!

Lotsa love!
